Hello Everybody,

And don't bother replying that these antennas "don't do anything" or
they "aren't any good" or "I tried it and it didn''t do a thing!" They
do INDEED work well WHEN YOU KNOW HOW TO USE THEM which you "naysayers"
obviously don't. (I've owned and used a Stelect-A-Tenna for over ten
years.)

But the review by Jay Allen really says it all. Check it out.

JA, - Thank You for Posting this Message and Link ~ RHF

You are right - If someone takes the time to read Jay Allen's

This isn't complicated. You just put it next to the radio orientated to
couple to the radios internal loop stick antenna. Then you just adjust
it to the operating frequency to peak the signal. If you have an
interfering station on channel you rotated them together to null it.
Easiest thing to do is use a lazy susan to rotate the tuned loop and
radio together. That's all there is to it.
